Audrina Patridge shooting off a dazed gaze, Spencer Pratt shrugging off
responsibility with a raised brow and Kelly Cutrone with mouth agape
giving what forall moments from The Hills, all immortalized by Karin
Buba as chalk pastel portraits.
Seeing an inspiring exhibition of pastels at the Musée dOrsay followed
by watching copious amounts of MTV are what led the Vancouver artist to
create 20 drawings that capture with life-like perfection the less than
perfect (yet still charmed) lives of Lauren Conrad and company.
Entitled With
Friends Like These, the show is both pretty and witty. If only
the lovely ladies of La-la Land themselves possessed more of the latter.
With Friends Like These runs until September
13, 2009 at the Charles H. Scott Gallery, Emily Carr University, 1399
Johnston St., Vancouver, 604-844-3809, chscott.ecuad.ca
